cnn legal analyst mel robbins and cnn aviation analyst attorney rosenberg joining me now from our new york newsroom. great to have you both with us. mel, if you would, tell us how realistic do you think it is for a lawsuit, a class action lawsuit, to be brought against russia and president putin and in what jurisdiction would it be filed? >> well, it's going to be filed in the united states and not only is it realistic, pam, it's actually got precedent. you remember the bombing of pan am flight 103 over scotland that killed 298 folks. there was a class action lawsuit that was successfully brought against the government of libya. with political pressure, even though libya never claimed responsibility for that bombing, they got a $500 million settlement out of that lawsuit. and so i think that you will see a lawsuit brought on behalf of the victims here in the united states. this law firm has done it multiple times before with great success. now, that doesn't mean that they'll be successful. i mean, they don't even have a secure crash site yet. but they could bring the lawsuit and with

with your mother hat on as well, mel robbins. a lot of people keep going back to the day we got from this probably cause hearing when you hear from this detective talking about on date little cooper died, this mother arrives at the daycare, and find out that her son hadn't been dropped off. and apparently she initially thought, you know, oh, my husband must have left my child in the car. and then the second thing about how she and her husband were in this police interrogation room, not realizing other people were listening and said "well did you say too much." suspect on one level. . >> you know, brooke, i totally agree with you. i thought the same thing. let's take them one at a time. >> okay. >> the statement at the daycare. if, in fact, it is her worst nightmare to have her son die in a hot car, and she arrives to pick the kid up and he's not there, it might just be maternal instinct, deepest fear. i write in the article that my husband and i got two phone calls back-to-back, and then a third one at the house, and i turned to

i'm going to read a quote from cnn commentator and legal analyst mel robbins. "her baby is dead, her husband in jail for murder, her suz was sexting with several women, her marital and financial troubles have been exposed for the world to see. the world media is pork t at her door and filming her every move. how is she supposed to act? lord only knows she's a hot mess of rage, fear, grief, shock, and everything in between." jane, what do you say to that? >> i have compassion for her but i also feel it's our responsibility as journalists to advocate for a dead child who cannot speak for himself, who was left in a hot car to die a torturous death. and frankly she didn't seem to be advocating for him at the funeral, saying would i bring him back into this world? no. did it occur to me to be angry at my husband? absolutely not. so i think she's brought some of this criticism on whers some of these frankly outrageous comments at the funeral and then some of the bizarre comments that prosecutors and detectives say she made, for example, when she gets to the daycare b

good morning, sir, and cnn commentator and legal analyst mel robbins in massachusetts. good morning, beautiful. all right, doug, i'll start with you. >> hey, honey. >> what am i missing, a two-game suspension for this yet we see when guys test positive for performance enhancing drugs, what do they get, a four-game suspension? >> right, and for a lot of people i think across country two games and the corresponding $529,000 loss of salary is not enough, but i think it's important to say from the outset that to some degree you're comparing apples and oranges and what i mean is drug suspensions are in the collective bargaining agreement which means there's a pre-determined schedule of punishment. first offense is automatically four games, second is eight and third potentially an entire season. which contrast what we saw in the ray rice fact pattern, however egregious it is, it's not included which means the scope of punishment is entirely subjective. it could be 2 or 12 and there was simply no precedent for anything more than two games >> you don't need precedent. they can
